Which is what any true adherent of the echo chamber would do. Actually listening to opposing viewpoints is an anathema to all self-ratifying perspectives.

Seems prior nominees who keynoted this dinner walked the line better than these two did.

Nice try but I didn't have time to watch any TV after that in fact any TV programs at that.

I would've loved calling Hillary "xyz" names.

Media, globalists, RINOs and crooked Hillary all in one room and he burned it down. We were laughing heartily.

I did not watch, but reading the opinion article on CNN the writer said both did poorly, but that Donald John Trump had the tougher time due to his facing a more liberal audience.

Some of the 'jokes' or barbs, by both, seem to be rather poor. Wouldn't these two have had some professional writers? People whom understood the purpose of the evening?

Honestly, Clinton's writer had more to work with. Sixteen months of Archie Bunkerisms. My personal favorite will always be Trump's Vulgar Admission: Avoiding STDs was "my personal Vietnam" with "few uninfected" women | RedState

Google: Sociopath traits

Trump's remark about Hillary "pretending not to hate Catholics" was very awkward, especially for this dinner.


I had no idea DT's Father was arrested in 1927 for participating in a KKK riot against the fact Al Smith might become the first Catholic Governor of NY and possibly President, but makes sense.
